Brooklin Matt wrote: Raine sure talks about god alot for being an athiest. "Over your shoulder you have to watch, heaven fall into hell"........That's from Angels Losing Sleep........I think that song's about George Bush realizing he's fucked things up....and Raine's waiting for him to "fall from grace". That's what I gathered from the live version anyways.
No. you are wrong
Raine wrote: "The lyrics are my take on religion. I'm into a lot of meditating. My Dad was Catholic and he tried to school me in that, but I never really caught on. I'm always interested in religion and the way it effects society."
No. you are wrong

Nikki, we can just move it. The CM has been host to some pretty heated debates before.......I'm hoping you guys will keep it going as long as no one gets out of control and or outright offensive.

Though Starseed's post above concerns me more than someone airing out their opinions. How long did it take him to write about absolutely nothing?.....and think of nothing? THose are the real questions that need answering.

I think it's usually fairly ironic when someone pulls out that "religion is for people who don't like to think" line.
